1. The document discusses the assessment of thesis work, including the roles of the student, supervisor, and examiner. 2. Examiners will evaluate theses based on several factors such as the relevance of the topic, clarity of writing, and the student's ability to defend their arguments and conclusions. 3. When preparing for the thesis defense, students should focus their presentation on the essential points of the research, speak confidently, and be able to justify their work using appropriate references.

2. Actor dalam Penelitian Tesis
1. The student, who identifies, approaches and
solves a problem
2. The supervisor, who guides you in your work
3. The examiner, who critically assesses your work

5. Penilaian Skripsi (Berndtsson, 2008)
1. General: Examiners will look at the relevance and
appropriateness of the topic you have studied, the
significance of the findings and the amount of contribution
you have achieved
2. Report: Examiners will look for clarity, consistency, an
appropriate use of arguments, a clear differentiation between
your own work and that of others in the literature and
appropriate referencing
3. Defence: Examiners will assess the types of arguments you
have made to support and defend your claims and
conclusions. They will also look for your own insight and
understanding in the work you have presented
4. Other: Examiners will review the administrative issues of your
project. For example, have you followed the regulations
correctly? Have you provided the right documentation at the
right time?

6. Penilaian Skripsi (Berndtsson, 2008)
1. General
1. Relevance of chosen topic
2. Originality of chosen topic
3. Significance of findings
4. Degree to which the work is the student’s own work
2. Report
1. Clarity of presentation
2. Consistency between different parts of the report
3. Degree of insight apparent from the arguments presented to
support the choices that the student has made
4. Ability to differentiate between others’ thoughts and own
5. Ability to handle references and citations
6. General stylistic impression

7. Penilaian Skripsi (Berndtsson, 2008)
3. Defence
1. Degree of insight apparent from the arguments presented to
support claims and conclusions
2. Degree of insight apparent from discussion in response to relevant
questions
4. Other
1. How the students performed as opponent
2. Fulfillment of deadlines and other formal requirements

8. Penilaian Tesis (Chinneck, 1999)
1. What was the research question?
2. Is it a ‘good’ question? This involves a comprehensive
literature review to ensure that the question is
‘useful’ – i.e., worth answering. Through the
literature review the student will show the context of
the question, that the question has not been
answered before and the extent to which others may
have partly answered the question in the past.
3. Has the student answered the question adequately?
4. Has the student made an adequate contribution to
knowledge?

9. Penilaian Tesis
1. General considerations: These considerations occur
in all types of projects at all degree levels
2. Foundations of your project: is its existence justified
within other literature in the field?
3. The project approach from a technical perspective
(i.e., not a project management viewpoint). Were
the correct methods used? Were appropriate data
gathered?
4. Results and contribution of the project. This is
particularly important at postgraduate level where
the ultimate contribution of the work is the quality
measure used

11. 8.3 Kiat Mempersiapkan Slide dan
Presentasi
11

12. Kiat Mempersiapkan Slide
• Secara umum alur presentasi sebaiknya mengikuti alur tesis
• Gunakan theme slide putih bersih, hindari menggunakan
gambar dan animasi yang tidak perlu
• Gunakan font hitam untuk isi slide, dan kata-kata yang
penting bisa diberi penekanan dengan font warna merah
atau biru
• Ukuran font jangan lebih kecil dari 20pt, usahakan
menggunakan 28pt atau 26pt
• Citation boleh diselipkan di kalimat dalam slide, dengan font
yang diset lebih kecil (18pt or 20pt)
• Slide tidak berisi paragraph penuh, slide hanya poin-poin
penting saja, berikan ilustrasi gambar bila diperlukan
• Gunakan slide size standard (4:3) karena secara umum
projector mendukung ukuran ini, jangan pernah gunakan
size widescreen (16:9)
12

13. Kiat Presentasi di Ujian Tesis -1-
• Lakukan presentasi dengan tenang, gunakan suara
lantang dan meyakinkan
• Atur suara supaya tidak terlalu tergesa-gesa dan juga
tidak terlalu lambat
• Beri penekanan suara terhadap poin-poin yang kita
anggap penting
• Jangan pernah membaca slide! Kita akan kehilangan
ruh terhadap presentasi kita bila mulai membaca slide
• Slide hanya berisi poin-poin, karena itu hapalkan
kalimat yang ingin kita ungkapkan dengan berdasarkan
ke poin-poin di slide tersebut
13

14. Kiat Presentasi di Ujian Tesis -2-
• Dalam sesi tanya jawab, dengarkan dengan tenang, catat
bila perlu apa yang diungkapkan penguji. Tunggu sampai
penguji selesai bicara, jangan memotong dengan jawaban
singkat, karena itu membuat jawaban kita tidak
komprehensif, dan ide kita gampang dijatuhkan
• Pahami dan hapalkan referensi utama kita, jawab
pertanyaan dengan suara lantang dan meyakinkan, dengan
landasan yang shahih dan jelas dari referensi yang kita
pahami tersebut
• Jangan mendebat dengan tanpa landasan, jangan banyak
gunakan “saya duga/pikir”, terima kalau koreksi dari penguji
memang logis, sampaikan bahwa akan melakukan revisi di
bagian yang telah dikoreksi penguji
